Every school gets "who is left", that is the nature of a coaching search. And Hart, if he chooses Strong, Fedora, Golden, Davis, Jones, or whomever, may still have gotten who he wanted but didn't figure it would hurt to see if he could shoot the moon. If he doesn't talk (or at least try) to Gruden, Fisher, Stoops, etc..., he's blasted by fans for settling on a lesser guy. If he talks to them and they don't drop everything to take the job, we are hosed and nobody wants to come to Knoxville. C'mon folks, we only want the man who wants us and we will get him. The last two searches were conducted by Hamilton, the latter hire under extreme duress caused by rushing into the former one. Hart is taking his time and doing due diligence to try and get it right. And who cares if some of the coaches he's talked to are using that to get a raise? Does that mean he shouldn't have talked to them? Relax, we'll know in a couple of days. After listening to Strong's comments, I think he's got the job unless Gundy wants it, which I doubt. Frankly, I'd rather have Strong. Go Vols!!!
